Our 5X vertical hitch bike rack can hold up to five bikes and has 15-inch spacing between tire baskets. This rack was spaciously designed to fully load drop handlebar bikes, such as road bikes, at one time. The 15-inch spacing apart allows for flexibility when loading bikes with flat handlebar bikes (like mountain bikes) but is necessary when storing two or more bikes with drop handlebars. If you are looking for a rack that will accommodate road bikes, beach cruisers, and/or tri-bikes, this is the rack for you. The spacing of this 5 bike hitch rack gives a variety of bikes the room needed for a smooth and steady drive. Plus, a little more space never hurt anybody. VelociRAX are patent pending and packed with user-friendly features.

There is no need to lift bikes onto this rack when using the roll-in and roll-out loading method, which means kids can load their bikes! Integrated hydraulic dampers assist fully loaded racks when lowering to the load position, so don’t worry about bikes crashing down or shouldering a heavy load when lowering this rack. All VelociRAX also come with a garage wall mount that can be used to store this rack with bikes when the rack is not on a vehicle.

This rack is popular among shuttle companies and road cyclists because it doesn't matter which bike is put where and works with complicated bike scenarios, including drop bars. Enjoy the additional space for quick and easy loading for a variety of bike shapes and sizes!

- 3 3/8 inch (86mm) depth past center of hitch pin hole to insert a VelociRAX
** Note - Check factory OEM hitch receivers on newer Subaru CrossTrek and Outback and Ford Ranger as they may lack sufficient depth on the factory hitch receiver.
- RVs/Trailers: you will need to have a Class III 2-inch hitch receiver with a tongue weight capacity of 500 lbs at a minimum (bumper hitches, extension hitches, and hitches with cantilevered sections allow too much hitch movement and are inadequate). One item to check is if a ladder could possibly interfere with the rack. Trailers and RVs produce extreme forces on racks and bikes. Take extra care to strap tight and use rubber bands (or bike tubes cut in ~1 inch sections) placed on the brake levers to decrease natural motion between bike and rack and fully secure the VelociRAX's built-in anti-rattle system.

Just buy it already!

Purchased this rack for my family and when I do trips with friends. I needed a solid rack that was built for longevity and would safely transport 5 bikes without fear of damaging the bikes and securely carrying them. While there are other brands of these types of racks out there, seeing the racks up close made me choose to spend the extra money to get a sure thing. Not to mention, the resale of these racks is high so if ever I did not need this rack anymore, I was confident I could sell it for more than most of these other cheaper racks would go for. The garage stow hooks are a nice add to use the rack as a bike holder when not on the truck. If you are looking for a solid, great working rack for your multiple bike transport needs, just buy the VelociRAX Rack and enjoy!

Loving the rack. It's definitely heavy, so for me, a bit hard to take on and off my van by myself, but I like the load/unload feature and really apreciate that people driving behind me can now see my brake and turn signal lights! Most platform racks all covered up both on my '21 Sienna. Would highly recommend!

What took me so long to get this rack

The VelociRAX 5X was purchased for use in the 2024 Salt to Saint relay. This model checked all the boxes allowing 5 road bikes to be secured safely and conveniently. Seth was awesome with his assistance and time during a phone call prior to the order and again at the store when I picked up the RAX. The system exceeded all our needs and expectations during our multiple bike changes throughout the event and then on the drive home. I’ll be installing the rack hanger tomorrow so the rack can be hung in such a manner to protect the rack and allow it to serve as storage for my bikes. It will allow full and ready access to any of the bikes.

Lots of bikes on the camper

I bought this rack to haul mountain bikes for NICA practice and races. In addition, I needed something that could mount on the back of my 20' camper. So far, we absolutely love it! Very easy to load and unload. Construction in next level!

They thought of everything

Great product, very intuitive and with the included wall mount it’s very versatile. When I picked it up, they took the time to walk me through how to use every feature
